She says she's been deprived of sleep

TV's Stacey Solomon shared a video with her fans on Instagram yesterday, in which she admitted that she's been an "anxious mess".

The Loose Women star, 30, who gave birth to her third child Rex last May, filmed the clip while sat on the toilet.

And she revealed that the cause of her worries was sleep deprivation.

In the 30-second video, which Stacey uploaded to her Instagram Stories, she told her followers: "It's only this morning, after he [Rex] slept through the night, I realised why I've been feeling so funny.

"You forget what waking up in the night does to you, so after a good few weeks of it, it builds up and builds up, and you become an anxious mess.

I forget what waking up in the night does to your mind.

"It's only this morning because he slept through the whole night that I realised that's what I needed – a full night's sleep."

Stacey captioned the video: "Just sitting on the toilet reading through your messages, as you do... Thank you for all of your lovely messages. I forget what waking up in the night does to your mind."
